SCANDINAVIA’S LEADING CLUBBING EVENT
Unique concept, unparalleled line-ups, and unconventional use of urban spaces:
RAW has since 2004 evolved into Scandinavia’s leading rave.
RAW is the one night of the year where genres and crowds break down the walls between mainstream and underground, and melt together in the oneness of rave. RAW is the party to which all clubbers and technophiles, rave kids and hipsters, fashionistas and anti-fashionistas, hip-hoppers and beatdiggers, pop chicks and bass heads look forward: the annual event that encompasses only the best of it all.
RAW has achieved a solid cult status standing across the country, in Scandinavia and beyond. In 2013, RAW marked its tenth edition and spent additional time and energy on finding a location reminiscent of the old warehouse days. We managed to do exactly that and can therefore proudly presented: RAW 2013 at Lokomotivværkstedet.
INTERNATIONAL STANDING
RAW offers the best DJs, MC and live acts, handpicked from all over the world. It is a music tour de force of highest calibre: a true celebration of club culture in all its shapes.
RAW has placed Copenhagen at the center of the world map of rave. Over time, RAW has had over 50,000 visitors and featured 480 artists from around the globe. This year, we’re reinventing ourselves with inspiration from our international festival-colleagues.
RAW cooperates with highly esteemed international concepts and with the best promoters in Denmark.
RAW has been broadcast live on worldwide radio and has received coverage in all major media in Denmark. There’s even a documentary about RAW. RAW has been celebrated and honoured with numerous awards.
Yet despite of this success, RAW is still recognized as an authentic underground brand. RAW is the result of the hard work of a bunch of guys from Copenhagen, who are themselves DJs and producers, devoted to create the ultimate rave experience.
